Using include directives makes changing the pg_hba.conf on the fly more flexible. Enabling / disabling ssl enforcement for example only requires creating or removing a file, leaving the pg_hba.conf untouched. Allowing for more repeatable and stable processes and no need for regex based replace or custom parsers.
This will also support the just-in-time access work by allowing jit to be dynamically enabled/disabled
